I'm posting the images from Jim Muth's Fractal of the Day.
While Paul Lee (who maintains Jim Muth's Fractal of the Day site: http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/) is recovering, I will render and post (just the image of) Jim's Fractal of the Day. I like detail, so I always create them at a resolution of 1,200 x 900 pixels. The images seem to work OK when viewed in a browser. Make sure you maximize the size of your browser window and click on the image -- so the browser isn't resizing the image for you -- and losing a lot of the detail. My versions of Jim's images are here: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html In Firefox, the F11 key removes and restores the browser menus, address bar, etc. to let you have the largest possible window. When F11 has been pushed to remove the menus, etc, there's no "Back" button. Just use the "Backspace" key to take you back one page. Occasionally, I increase the maximum iterations to try to maintain a "sharply pointed" feature in the fractal that would be less attractive (to me) if lost at the higher resolution. I'm using an unreleased version of Richard's "Fractint for Windows" (beta 5), so occasionally there may be a fractal that's not rendered the same as the official DOS Fractint. Get well soon, Paul. - Hal Lane ######################### # hallane@earthlink.net # #########################

Cool! I like them at the higher resolutions.

Press F11 again to restore the browser menus etc. F11 does almost the same thing in IE, too. -- David gnome@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community

The FOTD RSS feed is catching up to current images. I've been interleaving old images and new images in batches of 4. It should be caught up to current images in a little while, it all depends on how long it takes to render the image in xfractint. I render at 1600x1200 with 3x oversampling, so it can grind away for some of the images. Still, even if you don't get the "current" image on the day its posted to the mailing list, you're still getting a steady stream of new images and unless you've been monitoring Jim's posts for 10+ years, chances are you haven't seen the old images either :-). -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/> Legalize Adulthood! <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com>
